LOOK TO NEXT GENERATION Many Reasons Advanced for Super vised Play In Rural Communities of the Country. Country towns and rural communi ties seed recreational activities even snore than cities do, according to C. Seymour Bullock, supervisor of play grounds. New London, Conn., who made a strong plea for supervised play in rural communities at the season of the Recreation congress at Rich mond, Va. "Boy3 who were leaders when I was a boy are leaders now when I have be come a man. The fellow who led in the games, the fellow who made the lirst dive when we came to the rim of the 'old swimming hole,' is the one who, for better or for worse, has shown the power of initiative. This law of leadership furnishes the greatest argument in favor of su pervised play. If those born leaders of their kind are trained to lead in the right direction, the world will be bet ter when this next generation of boys "have taken their place among men. "Nowadays when this country-boy leader goes from his rural home to the city he brings with him a fund of vitality and physical strength. But, he himself, narrow and ill-poised, is often borne by his own surplus energy end love of excitement into the worst of the city's temptations. "The country offers nothing for its Jonely boys and girls to offset the lure of the city. Schools and churches have rot done their part. "Every country school should fol low the example already set by a few. l?et the country school institute super T? se play at recess and after school ?tours, so that boys and girls may Jaarn sociability and altruism by play ing together and helping younger chil dren to play. "There should be also a large build ing for athletics and social gatherings. Jt will cost money, bot it will save ?nany boys and girls from vice and ?rime. "It is estimated that Connecticut ex pends $870,000 yearly In cariag for ?er criminals. Better devote part of this sum to saving those whose devel opment into criminals or good citizens dependB largely upon good recreation, Or the lack of it." . GARDEN CITIES FOR WORKERS Miuv^u ?.vi** v_... ... ui me city to Norwood and Oakley tinder favorable circumstances. Bet their employes failed to move with them. Less than 4il ptr cent, live in the two suburbs jor near by. Only a handful may walk to and from their work. Why? Be cause, as Mr. Taylor believes, there was no semblance of adequate town planning to embrace the faet?n' work ers. While the factory managers made sufficient provision for the dis tort future of industry, "a far-sighted Mew of community development is en tirely lacking. The abode of industry ?ras thus assured when land wa? cheap. Similar assurance for homes for the workers away from thc con gested Cincinnati was nobody's con cern." So Mr. Taylor concludes that "one neighborhood recreation center such es Chicago now has to the number of Dearly twenty, might, with intelligent leadership, solve the problem.** More over. "The removal of the factory to the rim of the big city is not an ade quate solution of our cl. ic-industrial ?problem if it leaves the worker's home tn congestion, or even if it transports lt to a region where the whole fabric *>f community life ls left to remain undeveloped." Mistakes undoubtedly will be made fm the development of the garden city Ade a, but they may well lead to final Success in the movement. ! School Gardens and Societies. School gardens continue to receive lt constantly increasing share of pub Be attention. From very many parts .f the country reports re?\ch us bear lax witness to this widespread Inter est There can be no question but that the movement should be encour aged by all who are in any way con cerned In practical horticulture. If UM younger generation has implanted In it an intelligent interest in garden routine work, together with an intel ligent acquaintance with growing plants, there will not be the need of no much missionary work in garden wt in the future as there has been in the past. KUI Dandelions or Be Fined. Failure to root out dandelions win bo a misdemeanor punishable by a fine, in Omaha, Neb., if an ordinance favored by Mayor Dahlman, passes the -city council. The mayor declares dan delion a public nuisance and says he will go the limit to secure their ex termination. ONLY FLAKY PASTRY NOTHING ELSE r6 PIT FOR HOUSE HOLD TABLE.
